ROOFDX GOLD is an extremely tough, rubber-like, waterproofing coating that has a stunning golden finish with exceptional elasticity. This remarkable "liquid gold" coating can be used over all common roofing substrates and will give a golden, metallic, rich luster to the roof at a fraction of the cost of gold leaf. ROOFDX GOLD may be sealed with a topcoat of CLEARCOAT 44 to provide an extra shiny, brilliant appearance and preserve the bright finish otherwise a natural patina will develop in time.

 

Outstanding Features:

  • Provides an antique golden finish.
  • Protects substrate against rust, corrosion, UV damage, acid rain and water penetration.
  • Produces a high-density, seamless elastomeric waterproof membrane for maximum durability.
  • Straight forward application procedure by brush, roller or airless spray.
  • Remains flexible, tough and weatherproof at low temperatures and will not flow or deform at high temperatures.
  • Without clearcoating, the finish may be accelerated to form an attractive, bronze statuary appearance.
  • Will provide an appropriate substrate for future gold leafing.
  • May be used on vertical, pitched and horizontal surfaces and withstands ponding water.
  • Can easily be recoated at any time for repairs for lifetime extension.
  • Ten year material warranty that may be extended with re-coating.

Application:

All surfaces to be treated must be clean, dry and free of loose debris that may interfere with proper bond. Surfaces that have previously been coated should be examined carefully and tested for adhesion to the substrate. This can be accomplished by applying a strip of scotch tape to the coated surface. The tape should be thoroughly pushed into full contact and then pulled away at a 90 degree angle. Observe the adhesive surface for any dislodged coating particles. If the tape has pulled away a significant quantity of coating, or if it has loosened the coating from the substrate, the coating should be removed. Loose coating should be thoroughly removed by abrasion, water jetting or other available technique. Some coatings that are firmly bonded but have reticulated (mud cracked) and the edges lifted will need abrading to present a uniform, smooth surface for coating. Some very inert surfaces, such as epoxy, will require abrading and/or a special primer coat. coat.

ROOFDX GOLD is applied straight out of the can after 2 minutes of low speed mechanical stirring. Apply the product using brush, roller, or airless spray technique. The product should be applied in two coats at an overall rate of 50 square feet per gallon, achieving a wet film thickness of 30 mils or 15 mils per coat.

 

Clean up:

Clean tools and equipment with xylene or toluene before ROOFDX GOLD begins to dry.
